On January 1, 2026, Berlin begins the year in motion with the Berliner Neujahrslauf (Berlin New Year’s Run). This traditional event welcomes everyone — from families and casual joggers to experienced runners. It’s not about competition, but celebration, community, and a healthy start to the year.
The run starts at 11:00 AM near the Brandenburger Tor (Brandenburg Gate) and continues for about 4 kilometers through Berlin’s historic city center. Thousands join each year to jog, walk, or simply enjoy the cheerful atmosphere and live music along the route.
Berlin’s New Year weather is usually chilly — around 1–5°C with a chance of light rain or even snow flurries. Wear layers: a long-sleeve base, running jacket, gloves, and a hat. Don’t forget warm socks and a thermos for after the run!
Check the Berlin hourly weather before heading out to see if it’s windy or icy. The right outfit makes the difference between freezing and feeling fantastic.
Weather tip: Early morning hours are colder — around 0°C — but the sun often breaks through by 10–11 AM. Perfect running weather if you’re prepared!
After the finish line, warm up with something delicious nearby. Here are three great spots around Mitte:
